I agree 100% with JW.. a little extra info...be careful in the lower register. Padouk is MUCH SOFTER than rosewood and will withstand much less volume! I replace LOTS of low padouk bars for clients for this reason. Padouk is cheaper mostly because it is much less labor intensive because there is much less waste..Most of it is very straight grained to begin with. Adams makes very good instruments, but I have found many problems with their original tuning, and also bars going out of tune quickly.. I've gotten Adams instruments from all over the world in the last few years..right now there are several here from Australia! Even vibes, so it's not just the wood.. So, keep an "ear" out. And enjoy yout new toy... Bill Youhass Fall Creek Marimbas www.marimbas.com www.marimbas.com Remote Host: sdn-ar-004nynyorp313.dialsprint.net |
